With Josh O'Connor, Alana Haim, John Magaro. Heist movie by Kelly Reichardt (First Cow, Wendy and Lucy). Original English version with German subtitles.
In 1970, unemployed carpenter James Blaine Mooney (Josh O'Connor) and two accomplices pull off a brazen burglary in a museum: they steal four paintings in daylight. But this spectacular art heist is just the beginning. The supposed loot becomes a burden, and Mooney is forced to lead a life on the run. Embedded in an era of social change - marked by the Vietnam War and the growing women's movement - the story unfolds of a man searching for his place between art, crime and the upheavals of his time.
When American director Kelly Reichardt makes a film about a burglary in an art museum, you can't expect an independent version of "Oceans 11". Reichardt plays with genre patterns, deconstructs them and also uses them in her new film "The Mastermind" as a pretext to talk about American society and, in particular, the crisis of masculinity.
🇬🇧-🇩🇪 OMU English with German subtitles
Celebrated filmmaker Kelly Reichardt directs an unmistakable Josh O'Connor in THE MASTERMIND. In 1970, Mooney and two cohorts wander into a museum in broad daylight and steal four paintings. When holding onto the art proves more difficult than stealing them, Mooney is relegated to a life on the run.
